This article introduces Microsoft Safe Links - a security enhancement that makes it easy for you to assess the level of risk when clicking on hyperlinks while using Office365 applications.

This security tool, which is provided and maintained by Microsoft, allows an immediate review of URLs within Outlook, Teams and other Office 365 applications. When a URL is clicked within any of these environments, Safe Links will quickly review the URL ensuring it is secure before sending you to the location. This will protect you and the university by:

• scanning URLs for malicious intent
• providing greater threat visibility to University IT
• increasing individual risk awareness
